Sushmita criticized by a man for sending oxygen cylinders to Delhi
Actress Sushmita Sen was criticized on Twitter after she revealed she managed to organize oxygen cylinders for a Delhi hospital but doesn't have a way to transport them from Mumbai.
If Oxygen Crisis is everywhere why are you sending it to Delhi instead of giving it to some similar hospital in Mumbai.
— Hemant Kumar (@HemantVIIII) April 22, 2021
Because mumbai still has oxygen cylinders available, that’s how I found it. Delhi needs it, especially these smaller hospitals, so help if you can.
